The Complete Census of 70-um-Bright Debris Disks within the FEPS (Formation and Evolution of Planetary Systems) Spitzer Legacy Survey of Sun-like Stars
Lynne A. Hillenbrand, John M. Carpenter, Jinyoung Serena Kim +7
(abbreviated) We report detection with the Spitzer Space Telescope of cool dust surrounding solar type stars. The observations were performed as part of the Legacy Science Program,…
Dissecting the star-formation history of starburst galaxies: the case of NGC7673
A. Pasquali, P. Castangia
We have collected archival data on NGC7673 to constrain the star-formation history that produced the young star clusters and the field stellar population in this galaxy during the…
Interferometric detections of GOODS 850-5 at 1 mm and 1.4 GHz
H. Dannerbauer, F. Walter, G. Morrison
We have obtained a position (at sub-arcsecond accuracy) of the submillimeter bright source GOODS 850-5 (also known as GN10) in the GOODS North field using the IRAM Plateau de Bure…
Mid-infrared imaging of brown dwarfs in binary systems
K. Geißler, G. Chauvin, M. F. Sterzik
Context: Brown dwarfs exhibit complex atmospheric signatures, and their properties depend sensitively on effective temperature, surface gravity, and metallicity. Several physical p…
SHARC-II 350 micron Observations of Thermal Emission from Warm Dust in z>=5 Quasars
Ran Wang, Jeff Wagg, Chris L. Carilli +10
We present observations of four z>= SDSS quasars at 350 micron with the SHARC-II bolometer camera on the Caltech Submillimeter Observatory. These are among the deepest observations…
The Population of Dark Matter Subhaloes: Mass Functions and Average Mass Loss Rates
Carlo Giocoli, Giuseppe Tormen, Frank C. van den Bosch
Using a cosmological N-Body simulation and a sample of re-simulated cluster-like haloes, we study the mass loss rates of dark matter subhaloes, and interpret the mass function of s…
Discovery of a bipolar X-ray jet from the T Tauri star DG Tau
M. Guedel, S. L. Skinner, M. Audard +2
We have obtained and analyzed Chandra ACIS-S observations of the strongly accreting classical T Tauri star DG Tau. Our principal goals are to map the immediate environment of the s…
Ground-based variability surveys towards Centaurus A: worthwhile or not?
Jelte T. A. de Jong, Konrad H. Kuijken, Philippe Heraudeau
Context: Difference imaging has proven to be a powerful technique for detecting and monitoring the variability of unresolved stellar sources in M 31. Using this technique in survey…
Evolution of Mid-IR Excess Around Sun-like Stars: Constraints on Models of Terrestrial Planet Formation
M. R. Meyer, J. M. Carpenter, E. E. Mamajek +11
We report observations from the Spitzer Space Telescope (SST) regarding the frequency of 24 micron excess emission toward sun-like stars. Our unbiased sample is comprised of 309 st…
Gaia: Organisation and challenges for the data processing
F. Mignard, C. Bailer-Jones, U. Bastian +9
Gaia is an ambitious space astrometry mission of ESA with a main objective to map the sky in astrometry and photometry down to a magnitude 20 by the end of the next decade. While t…
The T Tauri star RY Tau as a case study of the inner regions of circumstellar dust disks
A. A. Schegerer, S. Wolf, Th. Ratzka +1
We study the inner region of the circumstellar disk around the TTauri star RY Tau. Our aim is to find a physical description satisfying the available interferometric data, obtained…
Kinematics of a hot massive accretion disk candidate
H. Beuther, A. Walsh
Characterizing rotation, infall and accretion disks around high-mass protostars is an important topic in massive star formation research. With the Australia Telescope Compact Array…
Million-Degree Plasma Pervading the Extended Orion Nebula
M. Guedel, K. R. Briggs, T. Montmerle +3
Most stars form as members of large associations within dense, very cold (10-100 K) molecular clouds. The nearby giant molecular cloud in Orion hosts several thousand stars of ages…
An infrared view of (candidate accretion) disks around massive young stars
A. Bik, A. Lenorzer, W-. F. Thi +4
Near-infrared surveys of high-mass star-forming regions start to shed light onto their stellar content. A particular class of objects found in these regions, the so-called massive…
Go Long, Go Deep: Finding Optical Jet Breaks for Swift-Era GRBs with the LBT
X. Dai, P. M. Garnavich, J. L. Prieto +20
Using the 8.4m Large Binocular Telescope, we observed six GRB afterglows from 2.8 hours to 30.8 days after the burst triggers to systematically probe the late time behaviors of aft…
Warm Molecular Gas in M51: Mapping the Excitation Temperature and Mass of H_2 with the Spitzer Infrared Spectrograph
G. Brunner, K. Sheth, L. Armus +7
We have mapped the warm molecular gas traced by the H_2 S(0) - H_2 S(5) pure rotational mid-infrared emission lines over a radial strip across the nucleus and disk of M51 (NGC 5194…
Vigorous star formation with low efficiency in massive disk galaxies at z=1.5
